Hello family and friends!!!
Happy Halloweeeeeeeen!!!!!!
Well this week was super eventful and I am very excited
about some things that we have going on right now!
First cool thing is Ann and Geanie's baptisms are this
Saturday!!! The whole ward is
excited and everybody just loves them and they are awesome! Their whole family came to the ward
Halloween party there were like 10 of their family members there! Then they came to church and invited us
over for their Sunday family dinner!!!! They are so sweet they are always saying, "Y’all are
family." haha Their baptism
on Saturday should be very awesome!
We went to the temple this Friday!!! We went to St Louis, (Colton I was
thinking bout your Cardinals the whole time) haha but the St. Louis temple was
a ton of fun! It was so good to be
in the house of the Lord and to ponder and pray about some questions I had! It
was a lot of driving though haha.

One sad thing was this week while teaching Ann and Geanie
they wanted a flier and we had left it in the car and so I ran outside and when
I was running I was kinda like bounding haha and I stepped on a pile of leaves
that had a hidden little pothole in the front of the yard and my ankle got
absolutely destroyed haha. I just
had to bite my tongue and limp in with the flyer haha. We finished our awesome lesson with them
about the commandments and then I told Elder Roberts haha. I am recovering though I just can’t seem
to heal that dumb ankle haha.
We are doing really good though and we are loving
teaching some other people that are progressing and making steps of faith like
Kenny Hugo, Ginger, etc. Also the
Betlyons who were baptized this transfer are just awesome and they are
preparing to go to the temple and Jess got called to be the Relief Society Secretary!
But yeah it was a good week we are starting a couple new
things in both wards to hopefully keep the work progressing!!!
I have been thinking a lot about honesty and realizing
how dishonest I have been throughout my life and I am changing a lot to just
not let myself slip up and tell lies or half truths or anything! One of the
things that inspired me to do this was this scripture:
Alma 5: 17 “Or do ye imagine to yourselves that ye can
lie unto the lord in that day and say- Lord, our works have been righteous
works upon the face of the earth-and that he will save you?"
I hope you all will strive to be more honest and to have
integrity. "Tell me what you think about when you are all alone and I will
tell you what kind of man you are." -I cant remember
haha have a great week I love you all!!!
Thanks for the Halloween Love!
